Breaking News:

Passing of Chief Audu Ogbeh, an Idoma Icon

It is with profound sorrow and a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Chief Audu Ogbeh, a revered elder statesman, distinguished leader, and cherished icon of the Idoma nation. Chief Ogbeh, aged 78, departed this world on Saturday, August 9, 2025, leaving behind an enduring legacy of integrity, service, and unwavering dedication to the betterment of his community and Nigeria as a whole.

Chief Audu Ogbeh was a towering figure whose contributions spanned agriculture, politics, and literature. As Nigeria’s former Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development (2015–2019), he championed transformative initiatives to boost local agricultural production and alleviate poverty, particularly in rural communities.

His visionary leadership also saw him serve as the Minister of Communications during the Second Republic (1982–1983) and as the National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) from 2001 to 2005. Beyond politics, Chief Ogbeh’s literary works, including his five acclaimed plays, remain a cornerstone of Nigerian literature, inspiring generations with their depth and insight.

Hailing from Efugo-Otukpa in Ogbadibo Local Government Area of Benue State, Chief Ogbeh was a proud son of the Idoma nation, often described as a modern-day Moses for his tireless efforts to uplift his people from poverty and create opportunities for the youth. His initiatives, such as the construction of rural roads and agricultural programs in Benue South, transformed countless lives and communities, earning him widespread admiration and respect.

The Ogbeh family, in a heartfelt statement, expressed their deep sadness, noting that Chief Ogbeh “departed peacefully, leaving behind a legacy of integrity, service, and dedication to our nation and community.” They find solace in the many lives he touched and the exemplary standards he set, which will continue to inspire us all. Details of his funeral arrangements will be shared in due course, and the family has requested privacy during this period of mourning.
We join the Ogbeh family, the Idoma nation, and the entire country in mourning the loss of this extraordinary patriarch. Chief Audu Ogbeh’s life was a testament to selfless service, and his memory will forever be etched in our hearts. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and all who were touched by his remarkable life.

May his soul rest in eternal peace.

Statement by
Engr. Dr. Roseline Ada Chenge (FNSE)
Former Managing Director of the Lower Benue River Basin Development Authority
and former Benue State Governorship Aspirant, Condemns Killings in Benue State and Proffers Solution to the Nigerian insurgency.
Date: June 5, 2025

It is with deep sorrow and great concern that I, Engr. Dr. Roseline Ada Chenge (FNSE)
Former Managing Director of the Lower Benue River Basin Development Authority and a former Governorship Aspirant Benue State , addresses the ongoing violence perpetrated by criminals and illegal immigrants in the name of herdsmen. The relentless attacks have claimed numerous innocent lives, leaving thousands of women and children homeless and communities in despair.

I call on His Excellency, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, the Executive Governor of Benue State, to take decisive action to protect the lives and properties of the people who voted him ,
“As a Reverend Father, a and the chief security officer of the state the people of Benue state your first priority is to save lives not mongering for power and more power , labelling all who condemn the killings in Benue as those who will not want you to run a second tenure, at the rate things are going where Naka,a town which is less than an hour drive from the state head quarter is no longer habitable ,where do you think that Makurdi will be in two years time I ask Governor Alia to secure the citizens in this four years mandate he been given

I am deeply pained and heartbroken when I see innocent women and children brutally killed by heartless and wicked criminals in their homes ,it clearly shows that what is going on in Benue and other north central states of Nigeria is not herders / farmers clashes but barbaric activities by criminals and illegal immigrants.
The former President of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari’s acknowledged that these perpetrators are immigrant criminals causing unrest in Nigeria. I noted that since 2013, countless military personnel have died fighting this non conventional war, it is unacceptable ,The Nigeria Army has it's score card high right from their role and engagement in the second world-war to all other international engagements .

The use of coordinated Information Technology for surveillance is the only solution to this kind of battles as this is not a conventional war , Drawing from my extensive travels across Benue and Nigeria, we must all admit that porosity of the northern borders due to fact that it borders different countries by land is the major cause of this problem mores that the neighbouring have severe security and economic challenges.

I also calls for enhanced collaboration as well as information sharing among security agencies, including the Department of State Services (DSS), Nigeria Police, Immigration Service, Office of National Security Adviser(NSA), the Nigerian Army ,the Airforce and NARSDA

On behalf the entire Benue women i appreciate the President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR for deploying the Chief of Army Staff to Benue state

Your Excellency Mr. President, the Forest Guards you pronounced is a very welcome how ever may you consider the recruitment of the individuals to have the traditional rulers at the center of the process Their deep-rooted connection to local communities, understanding of regional dynamics, and commitment to environmental stewardship uniquely position them to ensure a transparent, equitable, and effective as well as ensure only indigenes. of each community with high moral integrity is enlisted Assigning this responsibility to traditional rulers would foster community trust, enhance local engagement, and align the selection of forest guards with the cultural and environmental priorities of the regions they serve. This approach would strengthen the protection of our forests
And also enable the Nigeria Army to be more focused on preparing it self for any external aggression that will undermine our territorial integrity

Finally, I therefore; emphasized that no law-abiding citizen deserves to live in fear of loosing their lives ,All criminals who violate the law should face justice, I demand for justice for the over 50000 lives of Benue people that have been killed since 2012 without no provocation ,

Former Managing Director of the Lower Benue River Basin Development Authority
and Benue State Governorship Aspirant
